Moldex3D's computer-aided engineering software streamlines the design process for injection molded parts. 

Moldex3D Moldex3D's computer-aided engineering software streamlines the design process for injection molded parts. It deals with many aspects of molding, with modules for advanced hot runners, cooling channels, various lightweighting approaches, in-mold labeling and myriad other topics. With it, mold makers can visualize melt flow and troubleshoot problems such as warpage, flash and sink marks.

What's new? Version R16. It includes enhanced simulation capabilities for composite and special molding processes, such as foaming and resin-transfer molding, and a rapid mold gating iteration, which allows users to plot the best locations for gates. Also, users now can customize and automate simulation workflows.

Benefits Faster simulations, and accurate and reliable mold analyses. Overall, Moldex3D allows users to produce high-quality molds and tooling with fewer tool trials, optimize design patterns, shorten time to market, and maximize return on investment.
